    if anyone can help me I would appreciate some clarity on this but its really odd lol... My own dxdiag is showing I have x2 GTX 980's in my system but in fact I actually only have one... I'll post my dxdiag so you guys can see but looking for any info on why it might be showing this would be good, I have switched PCI express ports for it whether or not that has anything to do with it or not I don't know....

    Edit: Removed dxdiag copy/paste text as this is probably been answered for me now

    hahahahahahaha but seriously wtf man.

    I think it's probably just cause you have 2 monitors plugged in.

    You are seeing 2 displays not 2 gpus from what I saw. Maybe you shouldn't be posting dxdiags like this though. It looks awful.

    yeah i agree... i didn't see an option to upload a file on these boards though or I would have done that instead
